Since then, progress has been made towards ensuring adequate accessibility conditions in the work environment, the development of local sources of recruiting, the implementation of actions to raise employee awareness and the provision of in-house training, and the recruitment of persons with disabilities providing follow-up and support to ensure successful onboarding.

To consolidate this initiative, in 2016 a “Management Toolkit” was developed jointly with relevant social organizations with the aim of promoting and facilitating the recruitment of persons with disabilities to join the work teams.
